祈求 神带领回国

43  神啊!求你为我伸冤,

为我的案件向不敬虔的国申辩;

求你救我脱离诡诈和不义的人;

因为你是赐我力量的 神。

你为甚么弃绝我呢?

我为甚么因仇敌的压迫徘徊悲哀呢?

求你发出你的亮光和真理,好引导我,

带我到你的圣山,

到你的居所。

我就走到 神的祭坛前,

到 神、我极大的喜乐那里。

 神啊!我的 神啊!

我要弹琴称赞你。

我的心哪!你为甚么沮丧呢?

为甚么在我里面不安呢?

应当等候 神;

因为我还要称赞他,

他是我面前的救助、我的 神。

流亡異鄉者的禱告

43 上帝啊,
求你為我伸張正義,
在不虔敬的人面前為我辯護,
救我脫離詭詐邪惡的人。
你是保護我的上帝,
你為何丟棄我?
為何讓我受仇敵的攻擊,
使我哀傷不已呢?
求你以光明和真理引導我,
領我到你的聖山,到你的居所。
我要到上帝的祭壇前,
到賜我喜樂的上帝面前。
上帝啊,我的上帝,
我要彈琴讚美你。
我的心啊!
你為何沮喪?為何煩躁?
要仰望上帝,
因為我還要讚美祂——我的救主,我的上帝。

Psalm 43[a]

Vindicate me, my God,
    and plead my cause(A)
    against an unfaithful nation.
Rescue me(B) from those who are
    deceitful and wicked.(C)
You are God my stronghold.
    Why have you rejected(D) me?
Why must I go about mourning,(E)
    oppressed by the enemy?(F)
Send me your light(G) and your faithful care,(H)
    let them lead me;(I)
let them bring me to your holy mountain,(J)
    to the place where you dwell.(K)
Then I will go(L) to the altar(M) of God,
    to God, my joy(N) and my delight.(O)
I will praise you with the lyre,(P)
    O God, my God.

Why, my soul, are you downcast?
    Why so disturbed within me?
Put your hope in God,
    for I will yet praise him,
    my Savior and my God.(Q)

Footnotes

  1. Psalm 43:1 In many Hebrew manuscripts Psalms 42 and 43 constitute one psalm.

43 Judge me, O God, and plead my cause against an ungodly nation: O deliver me from the deceitful and unjust man.

For thou art the God of my strength: why dost thou cast me off? why go I mourning because of the oppression of the enemy?

O send out thy light and thy truth: let them lead me; let them bring me unto thy holy hill, and to thy tabernacles.

Then will I go unto the altar of God, unto God my exceeding joy: yea, upon the harp will I praise thee, O God my God.

Why art thou cast down, O my soul? and why art thou disquieted within me? hope in God: for I shall yet praise him, who is the health of my countenance, and my God.
